The Artful Covers
Artist Michelle Koeppel and Master Photographer Phinizy "Phin" Percy Jr. collaborated on the cover for The Broken Fall: A Katrina Collection. Both resident New Orleanians, Phin is nephew of legendary writer Walker Percy, who lived and wrote along the same Louisiana river, the Bogue Falaya, Orrill draws upon as inspiration for her work. Michelle paints original oil-on-canvas, using a range of media to create lustre, dimension and symbolism. Phin is currently in Baghdad on assignment filming a documentary--following troops once stationed in the hurricane-ravaged city to their new post abroad. The co-creators here share a "nola moment"--arriving to greet the humidity at Louis Armstrong Airport. |
